Dusty Springfield

In May 1965, when Dusty Springfield performed "All Cried Out" on *The Ed Sullivan Show*, she was experiencing a significant rise in her career. This performance took place shortly after the release of her album *Dusty... Definitely*, which came out in early 1965. The album showcased her distinctive vocal style and featured a blend of pop and soul sounds, solidifying her status as a leading figure in the music scene. An interesting fact about Springfield during this time is her appeal to both American and British audiences, making her a pioneer among British female artists breaking into the U.S. market. At this point in her career, she was not only gaining international recognition but was also establishing herself as an artistic force, particularly with her ability to convey deep emotions through her performances.
